Two Worlds, Two Selves
I can't help but be struck by the contrast of the clothes and appearance of a flight attendant with that of the passionate, hedonistic inner artist I'd like to express in what I wear. They're complete opposites! I would definitely have a vastly different "at home" life.
Additionally, a flight attendant must appear confident, sophisticated, not overly passionate in terms of emotions. The "artist" in me is seldom any of those things. I hope that someday I have a career in which I can dress more artistically then the boundaries of typical office/work attire would allow ... I kind of like the uniform look, though. Not sure I could pull it off because my facial features are not very sharply defined - an oval face, slightly weak chin, kinda chubby-ish cheeks. I look like a British milkmaid from the 1700s or something - unfortunately not a modern face with the sharper, pixie-ish lines & angles that are seen in many girls' faces these days. Wow, I went off on a tangent there ... product of insomnia - that could be a thing that would keep me from being able to be a flight attedant - my insomnia. It's been really bad ever since I was laid off - the anxiety ... Before, it was only one night out of every 6 - 8 weeks - manageable enough.
No matter what happens, when I am at home, I will be true to the artist that I am at heart. I will be expressive in how I dress and in the things that I do in my spare time (music, writing, roleplaying, etc.) I wonder what's going to happen ... I'll find out soon enough, and I don't need to be afraid. God knows what's going to happen and He is going to open the doors that are good for me and close the ones that do not lead to life. I can trust Him.
